The House of the Lord: A Study of the Temple Scroll Columns 29:3b-48:18 (Schriften der Finnischen Exegetischen Gesellschaft)

Through the second study of 11QT, Columns 29:3b47:18, the so called Temple Source is completely analysed. The study shows that among biblical materials the book of Leviticus has had the broadest influence on this section of the scroll. This may indicate a priestly hand in its composition. Another important result is the summary of the Hebrew text of Columns 29:3b-47:18. This result is a balanced evaluation of the best readings. It includes a number of alternative suggestions.
